The boundary where the two plates meet is called a convergent boundary. Deep trenches appear at these boundaries, caused by the oceanic plate bending downward into the Earth. Deep below the Earth ...

The movement of the plates creates three types of tectonic boundaries: convergent, where plates move into one another; divergent, where plates move apart; and transform, where plates move sideways ...

Also known as subduction boundary, a convergent boundary occurs where one plate slides under another as the two are pushed together. If there is land at the edge of one of these plates ...

Conversely, in places where two plates come together, a convergent boundary occurs. The impact of the plates in those places ...

Use Graphic 2 to discuss convergent, divergent, and transform boundaries. Explain why each of these boundaries has the particular observable phenomena the students have seen. 14. Have the students ...

Ask them near what plate boundary (convergent, divergent, and transform) one can expect to see this kind of fault. Explain to them that earth scientists distinguish between two types of strike ...

When the plate sinks into the mantle it melts to form magma. The pressure of the magma builds up beneath the Earth's surface. The magma escapes through weaknesses in the rock and rises up through ...
